Task 2

Designer(s): Describe to the Materials Scientist(s) how piezoelectric materials work and what products they are typically found in. What do you find to be the most interesting properties of flexible piezoelectric polymers? Imagine and discuss what kinds of new products these materials might be used for.

Materials Scientist(s): Describe to the Designer(s) how to make a flexible piezoelectric material. Explain to the designer how similar or different the research process presented here is to your own process, focusing in particular on the scale and speed of materials development.
